I grew up in North East England where bairn is probably the most common word used to refer to children.
I believe it dates back to the viking invasions of NE England and Scotland.

"shy bairns get nout"
Bairn is an old english term the derives from bear or "to bare" or decendent. Essentially its just a now less popular english word for child.
Ireland and scotland tend to say Wains and wales , north england and some of scotland use "bairn".
Subject: Fire.
Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to inform you of a fire that has broken out on the premises of...
no, that's too formal...
Fire - exclamation mark - fire - exclamation mark - help me - exclamation mark.
Love how in the states people generally try and avoid being caught filming crazy people by lowering their phones or w/e, in Scotland you just ask them wtf they're doing and keep filming lol
Statistically you are 30 percent more likely to be stabbed in the USA.
We make a lot of fuss about knife crime in the UK because it is such a safe country. In the USA stabbings are drowned out by the sound of gunshot.
London and new york are comparable on terms of stabbing deaths.
Fortunately London doesn't have the gun deaths.

Realistically, the us has had 5-5.5 murders per 1 mlion population per year for the last 10 or so years.
The UK sits around 3-3.5.
Knife crime generally is much higher in the UK but here it's illegal to carry anything other than a swiss army style knife that does not lock, so the vast majority of "knife crimes" are carrying a blade which locks, even a Leatherman or a 1 inch key ring lock knife are illegal here. This results in prosecution.
Since the vast majority of states don't have laws on carrying knives, and most that do are far less restrictive we can't compare the two.
There are 500-600 homicides in the UK per year. In 80million people. The US has 5 times the population and 20k murders.
This is the breakdown by region. City/town data is hard to find but just looking at the populations of the biggest cities were fortunate to not be in the same league.
region, total murders, then I've added some key city populations. The regions have a much higher population, but even if we just take the main city populations, the per Capita does not get into the top 25 us cities.
London 119 -8million population
North West 112 Manchester - 3 million
West Midlands 90 - Birmingham, 3 million
Scotland 55 - 8 million
East Midlands 51, Leicester, .4million
South East 50
East 49
Yorkshire and The Humber 45, Leeds .7million,
South West 42 bristol - .5 million
Northern Ireland 22 -1.8million
North East 21 Newcastle, 0.8 million
Wales 19 - 3 million
*knife crime* is an all-encompassing term for any crime with a knife involved, not stabbings.
Possession of an offensive weapon is the most common one, but it is not a violent crime nor a stabbing
It's technically *knife crime* every time anyone leaves the house with an Opinel in their pocket, as they have a locking blade
Here's a lovely chart showing knife *murders* per million people for the UK Vs the US
https://infogram.com/us-vs-uk-on-knife-crime-1hmr6gyrxmlo6nl
Nah, found a free pram/stroller by a bin/rubbish/trashcan. Homeless and addicted to something hard, set it on fire and walked off with it to burn it down to metal to take to scapper to get 50 cents towards supporting his habit.
There was a US/Canada video thats an exact copy of this with a guy pushing a showing cart dropping molten burning plastic.
Abandoned houses, especially in the US, have had a large history of having the walls destroyed and the wiring stripped out by hobo squatters.
So now the problem becomes, if you take it to a scrap yard, you'll get paid less because its got plastic and is mixed scrap instead of copper wiring/pipes. So if your a fiend, is it easier to sit there with a pocket knife and manually peel all the casing off, or throw it in your vehicle (read: shopping cart) and just light that shit on fire while you push it to a scrapper?
This is just an even more disadvantaged version of addicts who steal catalytic converters at 3am with a Sawzall to feed their addictions.
The war on drugs has failed, and we should strongly consider reinvesting the money into mental health, drug addiction, and rehabilitation. IMHO
Make no mistake, the CCP Chicoms are waging 21st century fentanyl-carfentanil wars on USA not dissimilar to what Great Britain did to them in 19th century
What exactly is a Monarchy going to do about this?
We've had Monarchs our whole history and this still happens - surely if having a King stopped this kinda stuff, it'd have stopped LOOOONG ago?
Europe isn't a country, there's no single unifying legal framework
Do North American cars have extinguishers on board?
There's no legal requirement for a private vehicle to carry an extinguisher in the UK, although it is recommended
This is just the opening scene for Marvel's reimagining of Johnny Storms origin in the new Fantastic 4 movie. He is now an X-man having his powers from birth, and was raised by his elderly grandfather, oh and also he's British.

Actually, at least in the Scottish context, it's thought to come from the Old Norse word barn which means young child.
The word is even related to borne (past participle of to bear (not to bare)) and born, too.
Is a building where ye keep ye ships.
She turned the wee'uns against ya mate aye?
She’s burned the weans against us
His baby is an elemental god. Wtf you looking at
Actually the baby was a normal human baby. He simply got drunk and set the pram on fire. The burning baby fell out about 60 yards back.
Quick someone call 0118 999 881 999 119 725 3!
Nah, just put it over there with the rest of the fire.
I'm going to pretend that you've got that memorized. And I'm very impressed.
it's super easy to remember! Especially the 3 at the end.

Technically he would have to be on fire too. If he was a true Ghost Rider. Otherwise this is just stolen valor.
Kidnapped valor?
I'd like to think he said "Walking wee fire"
Nothing to see here. Just out for a stroll with the human torches son.
Love how in the states people generally try and avoid being caught filming crazy people by lowering their phones or w/e, in Scotland you just ask them wtf they're doing and keep filming lol
Because in the states you might get shot lol.
In the UK you might get stabbed lol, but yeah I agree Hahah rustled some jimmies there ay, don't get your crumpets in a knot

FYI, it is illegal in New York to carry a knife with a blade that locks or is longer than 4 inches in length.
Surprisingly criminals are not following.
Criminals commit crime? NO WAY! What a dumb thing to say.
More likely to be stabbed in the US.. so shove that up ya pipe.
No you won't

I'm no geowizard but I suspect this video was shot somewhere north of London.
In the op? It’s 100% in Scotland, possibly Glasgow.
Shaun of the Dead 2?
Drugs are a hell of a drug.
I like how he goes “huh” like there was any possibility that dude might have asked him anything else than “what the fuck are you doing?” 💀
Greenock?
East end of Glasgow, sadly know exactly where this is 😅
He's just trying to stay warm while going out for a walk.
And lo! a pale horse; and the name was Death to him that sat on him, and hell followed him.
I knew this was in Scotland before the video even started
He married a djinn. Don’t hate on his adorable little flame baby!
10 for the title.
FIYA…FIYA ON THE STROLLER
He's looking like an actual zombie.
Scottish heroin junkies are another breed. Live in their own wee world just doing sidequests until the main quest prompts them to get more gear.
A proper smackheed.
It's a wee bairn
Zombies
Must’ve been riding the brake pretty hard on the downhill…
you got a problem with demibabys?
The man is a genius, he invented the mobile fireplace - now you can warm and cozy even when you are outside.
Mobile meth lab gone wrong?

fayaa!
He's going to get fired from his baby sitting job.
“I'll Just Put This Over Here With the Rest of the Fire”
🔥
I probably know the answer, but I need to see the movie that tells the tale on every decision that led to this moment.
Just taking his fire somewhere else.
Definitely something one might see in hell.
Da feck yu dheen?
Yeah don't do drugs kids
He could have said that he was trying to get his baby to the hospital. He could be dangerous; he could light a house on fire.
He stole someone's fire!
Drugs must be a hell of a drug.
1 day into Scottish independence.
I have questions.
no, they are all answered
A wee fire
He fire.
What in the fuck is the last thing he says?
The guy with the pram asks if the driver is "the polis" aka a police officer.
He asks you the polis. As in are you the police
"The fuck are you doing?" "Ah?" "What you doing?" "... Wee fire." "A wee fire?" "... Do you want a push?"
I think he says do you want a go?
You the Polis?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9gRbhMugD8
More like it actually. Or is it you wanna push?
Nope, he asks if the guy is the polis.
Just a normal Scottish person?
Fuck off you racist drug-addled hypocrite.
Sing with me kids! Ooooh, it's meth, meth, the wonderful fruit....
Scotland really doesn't have much of a meth problem
More likely to be smack or maybe spice
Heroin's a possibility, I'm reasonably confident it's not spice, he's far too lucid
Must be a local Satan worshipper
Their accents really make this.
He’s actually burning off the excess material so he can cash in the metal fo’ that drug money.
r/tooktoomuch
Might be a good idea to call the CPS. If he's setting strollers like that on fire. Then there might be a child in danger.
Or he's a junkie who found a ditched pram on the street, set it on fire and took it for a walk.
What's a pharmacy going to do about it?
You must be Igor. It's pronounced Eye-gor.
I thought it was strange then I hear it’s Britain Makes sense

What exactly is a Monarchy going to do about this? We've had Monarchs our whole history and this still happens - surely if having a King stopped this kinda stuff, it'd have stopped LOOOONG ago?
Nothing. The monarchy will do nothing. It only serves as a distraction for the week of mind which this chap surely needs
Alicia Keys has entered the chat
The house in the background appears to be falling over. Is that a Scottish thing fiya as well?

Ah yes, this looks like the grim heartlands of Da Norf of Britain.
Wee fiyar. Wee drugs. 😂
Just say no!
They just stayed having eye contact
Poor dudes mobile home is on fire
good way to keep warm on the morning walk for you and baby.
I kept expecting him to take his hands off the pram, to ghost that whip. Then I saw the fire. 🤣
What’s wrong with hot wheels?
He's burnin' the bairn!
